To Gain Something – Foxxsize
Swords clashed, metal biting against each other as the two women continued their duel despite neither wanting to hurt the other. However, neither could give into the other either, so the duel continued.
Capsize knew that all the others would call her crazy for this course of action. The champions, locked in their betrayals, were flickering between wanting their friend back and wanting her dead. And her brother had lost all trust in Foxx, just as he’d never had trust in Syndicate.
But Capsize, as ever, trusted her own opinion and judgement more. She still trusted Sonja, despite everything. She needed to get her away from the Shadows she’d turned to.
“Just come back with me,” She said as she pushed her cutlass against the diamond sword. She didn’t particularly want to be fighting like this, but Sonja wasn’t willing to listen to her otherwise.
The fox smirked.
“Back into smiting range? I don’t think so,” She laughed as she attempted to gain any advantage in their duel.
Sonja had no intention of going back to the gods. She’d only come this close for precisely one thing. However, it would all be for nothing if she couldn’t gain the upper hand in this fight.
That wasn’t going to be easy. The captain was an experienced fighter and was never going to back down from her own goal. It’d be easier for Sonja to flee and come back with the advantage of surprise, but she didn’t want to give up this golden opportunity.
However, an idea came into her head. She knew one way to gain the advantage.
She allowed herself to lose the struggle between the swords, all but dropping her own weapon. It caused Capsize to have to quickly adjust her own swing as she didn’t actually want to hurt Sonja. A fact that the fox was all to happy to take advantage of.
She closed the distance between them, acting quickly to not give Capsize the seconds needed to swing once more. She grabbed a hold of the pirate’s shirt and pulled her into a kiss.
Despite everything, despite knowing better than to let herself be blinded by such a move, Capsize melted into it. It was the closeness that she had missed so much. A warmth and softness that made her forget herself.
And that gave Sonja precisely the reaction she needed.
A sharp pain spread through Capsize’s head as a pommel was smashed into it. She didn’t collapse, but she was staggered and in enough shock that that didn’t matter. The fox shoved her to the ground and quickly the pirate found her arms restrained.
“That was cheap,” She complained through gritted teeth.
The taste of Sonja’s lips was still on hers, reminding her of the woman she wanted to help. Said woman, finished with binding her wrists, scooped her up off the floor. She wore a smile as if this was any other casual situation.
“Sorry, Cap. But I wasn’t going to leave you behind again.”
My favourite Foxxsize concept to just rotate about my mind is full on Shadows follower Sonja.
Just the energy of Capsize's "I can fix her" (I can make her realise that even if she didn’t get the respect she deserved from Lord Mianite that the Shadows aren't the answer and she doesn't need to fall for their manipulations because she has friends that do appreciate her)
Verses the energy of Sonja’s "I can make her worse" (I can make her realise that Lady Ianite isn't appreciating her enough despite all the effort she's putting forth and help her get the respect she does deserve by turning against the gods)
There's just so much angst and toxic yuri potential it makes my head hurt
Because of some silly stuff I’ve been discussing with a friend lately, I’ve been really thinking about how cute a Foxxsize tattoo studio/flower shop AU would be :3
They both work so well for either role and I could do so many cute little oneshots!!
22 foxxsize!
In a rush of adrenaline
Sonja moves on instinct, feeling the swing before it begins. Not a single thought in her head except stopping Furia before they can kill Capsize.
She's attacking from behind, which should give her the advantage in killing the guardian, but she still has no guarantee that will stop their attack. No guarantee that their sword won't slice through Capsize’s neck as she can tell it's posed to do.
She aims for their arm, hoping to cut off any momentum they may have. Every echoing doubt that she's not going to accomplish anything just fuels her swing.
Her sword cuts into fiery flesh, golden blood staining the blue blade. It isn't enough to kill. It's barely enough to slow their swing. But she causes enough of a distraction for Capsize to swing her own blade into the Guardian’s neck.
Furia disappears into smoke. They haven't been killed for real, but that matters so little.
She rushes forward to Capsize, knocking into her and sending them both to the Nether bricks floor. Having just been horrifically reminded that life can be far too short, she crashes her lips into the pirate's.
It's messy and not at all how she had pictured a first kiss. But her passion is reflected back and even when her heart stops beating in her ears and they pull away she has no regrets. Just a tad of embarrassment as she turns to see their friends staring dumbfounded.

Hitting us hard with the start here ;-;

Sonja knew it was silly, but she had to give it a shot.
Redbeard stood in front of Capsize who plainly groaned and swiped at him, a ghost of herself that Ianite could barely raise up. He was holding back sobs but tears streamed down his cheeks all the same.
Sonja put a hand on his shoulder and gave him a pleading look. He hesitated but stepped back with his sword at the ready.
Capsize blankly stared at the exchange, gnashing her teeth.
Stepping up slowly but being quick to catch Capsize's flailing arms, Sonja rested her forehead against Capsize's. The zombie strained to take a bite at her.
If Sonja looked closed enough she thought she might have seen tears pooling at the edge of the zombie's eyes- but that was likely just her hoping. Instead, she headbutted Capsize, stunning the zombie just long enough to put her plan into action.
A last hail Mary- true love's kiss.
Her lips met dry and cracked ones. She stayed there a moment, eyes clenched shut, hoping beyond hope. When teeth met her lips instead of passion she tore away.
Capsize was just as dead as she had been when Ianite raised her body.
To me:
In Ianite/Capsize - Capsize falls first, Ianite falls harder.
In Foxxsize - Sonja falls first, Capsize falls harder.
Especially in timelines where both relationships exist (or at least the feelings for each other) like my post timeline.
